Listen "#61 Bboy Wicket: Living In The Fire"
Episode Synopsis
Bboy Wicket is a prominent figure in the breaking scene. In this episode, Wicket dispels the myth that breaking has vanished until this moment and emphasizes that it is a challenging dance and an art form that demands perseverance and practice to perfect. He shares his excitement about Breaking's participation in the Olympics and believes that viewers will see it as a unique fusion of sport and art when they watch it for the first time. Wicket also discusses the value of mentoring budding artists and breakers. He introduces his mentorship program, the Breakbook, which includes a magazine that profiles participants, their growth through the program, and their tales. He also offers his perspective on the most prevalent breaking tendency, which is the rush of the process for development, and how this detracts from the performance as a whole. Last but not least, Wicket talks about the potential of digital material and his desire to provide a platform for the breaking scene and give the unseen and unheard individuals a voice and a platform while mentoring and training the future generation.
